Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands by Jorge Amado

In this extraordinary adventure by Brazil's foremost novelist, one wants Flor to have everything-including her roguish, passionate husband who died of his exer-tions; and her new husband, a considerate gentleman. in a country of many gods and even occasional miracles, Flor approaches the divine Exu and stirs up more than old memories. And only she knows she has two husbands-one living, one dead-each consummately skilled in his own way in the infinite art of love.
